For those in the know, how much would this configuration weigh approximately, 28" tubes, stright grip, invector chokes? I'm curious.

The traditional Citori Superlights like this one usually aren't super light. I have a 1989 12ga Superlight Citori with 26" barrels that weighs in at 7lb 3oz which really isn't bad for a Citori. I think the Superlight Feathers may be a different story weightwise but I've never handled one.
I did message the seller asking about the weight. |

Followup, seller says according to their postal scale gun is 6lb 10oz. Pretty nice weight IMO for 28" barrels. |

Sorry to hijack the post and I am happy to switch to a new thread but what does a Citori White Lightning 16 ga with 26" barrels typically weigh. Mine weights in at 5# 15 oz according to my postal scale. Seems to be a lot lighter than what others say their Citoris weight. Just curious.

I think you need to check that White Lightning on another scale. I have the same exact gun and while I have never weighed the gun I've always felt it was 6 3/4 - 7 lb. The Browning web site lists the weight at 7 lb. 1 oz. I know there can be some variance due to wood density but not a full pound worth. |

I saw that weight too. If correct, it certainly is a light one.
I also have a 2013 Superlight with the same 28" barrels and mine weighs 7lbs.-2oz (within .2 oz on two different postage scales). A full 1/2 pound difference is possible based on the density of the wood, but it would certainly be a light one if correct.
